US EditionCrypto Billionaire Changpeng Zhao's Purchase Of Token Sends It Soaring By 12%: Binance Founder Says He Buys And Holds, Doesn't Trade
Changpeng Zhao's recent purchase of 2 million ASTER tokens boosted its price by nearly 20%, reflecting strong market confidence in the hybrid decentralized exchange platform.
- Binance founder Changpeng Zhao purchased approximately 2,000,000 ASTER tokens, sparking market activity as ASTER's price climbed nearly 20%, linked to the buy.
- ASTER relaunched as a rebranded derivative platform in September 2025, merging older tokens like APX and offering hybrid decentralized exchange features including perpetuals and high leverage.
- On-Chain records show the ASTER wallet accumulated large sums of USDT and became one of the largest on BNB Chain, with an 8 billion max supply and over half allocated to community incentives.
- Market watchers say the rally reflects speculative demand and carries downside risk as CZ called the launch a `strong start`, while analysts warn high supply and competition threaten retreat.
- Investors saw the buy as a confidence signal from CZ, and the relaunch plus wallet accumulation position ASTER as a notable participant on BNB Chain with wider market potential.
